Ireland, Italy and Brazil are the most musical places for me. They're extremely musical cultures and anything you pitch they basically catch.

There's a lot more information at hand and sometimes there's information overload and we become desensitized to it, so things start to mean less.

What I've always done as an entertainer is try to come up with things that people will find interesting, or compelling, or humorous.

If I were to try to identify a turning point I'd say that was it - getting clean.

I am myself for a living. I don't animate a character.

Music is like a huge release of tension.

I'm glad that I still have the ability to tour in Europe. I do love it.
